Three whites and the oddball

All four of my zebras are out and about today. The dad is a phaeo and the mom is a white. This is their first clutch, and they are doing a great job. All my zebras seem to like nesting in the larger food dishes instead of the nests I place around the cages. I love my little oddball the most.

The oddball chick appears to be a fawn Isabel

Thanks everyone! I think I may keep the oddball one, depending on the sex of it. As bad as it may sound, I may get away from white zebras. I've found that all my males love plucking the white females.

Aw, they're so lovely!
I quite like the oddball too! Very cute.

Love the name of your site, by the way. Beeps n Peeps. So fun!

Put some white feathers in the cage, and they will stop plucking the whites.

Your offspring "whites" look Florida fancy, the silver is likely a Florida Silver.

Florida Fancy is Co-dominant. If the fawn turns out to be a hen then dad is split to fawn. Do you have a picture of mom?

A bit of an update...

The whites turned out to be white females. Here is a picture of the oddball finishing up with the last bit of his molt.

I absolutely love your baby Budgies.
I happen to have Budgies on the brain right now, just got a toddler Budgie a couple of days ago and just learning the ropes.
